Thanks for the info, Tim.

Something to consider on your aircooled, if it has a carb with a pilot jet, try fattening it up by one size. I had a '86 Yamaha, though watercooled, it was jetted for low emisions in California. It had a nasty low rpm lean stumble, and ran hot as blazes in town with the cooling fan on nearly constantly instop and go. I replaced the pilot jet, by one size, and the stumble disappeared completely, and the cooling fan rarely came on even while idling during carb synch checks. I don't know your carb type, but you might want to experiment a bit.
